People who believe that, have the title thrown at them.
I can't recall once, where I've said to someone "I'm interested in Japanese culture, and it's history, as well as other parts like the music." and been called weabo in return.
Perhaps that's just me.

lol... listen to yourself.
Who actually believes those things.
I mean I've met people that are a little bit too over enthusiastic about Japan for my liking also.
But to someone who has no interest in Japan at all and that has contempt for people who are interested in Japan... then WE are the Weabos to them.
It's relative.
For example.. I don't understand those people that listen to Japanese music almost religiously yet they can't understand the lyrics. For me that just doesn't make sense. If I were to be contemptuous towards them then I would call them Weabos. (Although I don't understand why you would listen to songs that you can't understand, I don't really hold contempt towards these people but that was just an example)
It's just a slur and the fact that none of you can agree on a particular definition or establish a line one must cross in which to become a weaboo is evidence of this.
The fact that nobody can look at themselves and honestly say they're a weabo is further evidence of my point.
